AccuWeather Alert: Line of gusty storms Wednesday

PHILADELPHIA (WPVI) -- After Wednesday's storm chance, bright and breezy conditions will persist for the rest of the workweek.



WEDNESDAY: A few spotty showers possible during the morning, mainly northwest of the I-95 corridor.



A strong cold front approaches from the west, and winds ramp up out of the south. Ahead of the front, we're looking at temps in the upper 50s and low 60s.



Rain develops by the afternoon with possibly a line of gusty thunderstorms between 2 p.m. and 8 p.m. moving west to east. Aside from the thunderstorm threat, winds will gust up to 50mph.



Any thunderstorms could bring down locally higher gusts, especially in the western suburbs. An isolated tornado can't be ruled out.



A few strong-to-severe storms can't be ruled out, with the main threat being damaging wind gusts. A steady rain will accompany this, with rain totals right now looking to be between 1/2" to 1". Some ponding and runoff are possible with the steady rain.



THURSDAY: Windy and cooler, high 52 but feeling cooler.



FRIDAY: Mostly sunny and breezy, high 51.



SATURDAY: Clouds, limited sun. A stray shower can't be ruled out, high 49. Don't forget to change your clocks ahead an hour before bed as we spring ahead.



SUNDAY: Some sun, isolated shower possible. High 47. Sunrise will be 7:22 a.m. Sunset is 7:02 p.m.



MONDAY: Plenty of sunshine, few clouds. High 52.



TUESDAY: Turning warmer, mostly sunny. High 62.
